What is Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer / EPDM

Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, also referred to as EPDM, is a form of synthetic rubber insulation. The compound is created by chemically cross-linking the elastomer. EPDM offers great flexibility, durability and resistance to moisture. It also performs well in high temperatures and high voltages. Typically, EPDM wires and cables are used for high temperature applications, such as appliances. Another use of EPDM is medium voltage power cables.
